The Bilstein B60 Custom Lift Kit fits the Mazda BT50 2011-ON and pairs 60mm bore monotube shocks with EFS raised leaf springs for a 2"-3" lift front and rear. The larger 60mm bore controls heat and oil aeration better than smaller twin-tube shocks, holding damping consistent under constant load - useful when touring with a canopy or bullbar fitted. Paired with our coil spring range up front, ride quality stays compliant unladen and controlled once loaded. In stock in Australia with full Bilstein manufacturer warranty and fitment support from our team.

Choosing the right rear leaf spring pack comes down to what your BT50 carries day to day, not just the lift height. A tray back with a toolbox and compressor sits heavier at rest than a canopy with camping gear, so the spring rate needs to match that constant load to avoid sag or an overly stiff unladen ride.
Common accessories that affect spring selection include steel bullbars, winches, aluminium trays, canopies, dual-battery trays, long-range fuel tanks and rooftop tents. Tell our team what's fitted or planned and we'll match a leaf pack and shock valving to suit.
Fitment should be carried out by a qualified suspension technician or an experienced DIY installer with a hoist and spring compressor, given the leaf spring and shackle work involved. A wheel alignment is mandatory after installation to correct camber, caster and toe at the new ride height. Allow a 500km bedding-in period for the new shocks and leaf springs to settle before fine-tuning tyre pressures and load. For BT50s with worn or aftermarket control arms, pairing this kit with upgraded control arms helps maintain correct front geometry at the raised height.
Bilstein has built monotube gas shocks since the 1950s and remains a benchmark fitment for OEM and aftermarket 4WD suspension worldwide. The B60 range is tuned and tested for Australian roads and tracks, from corrugations to long highway towing stints, and is backed by a manufacturer warranty. Tradespeople and tourers running BT50s choose Bilstein when they need consistent damping under repeated heavy loads rather than a soft weekend-only setup — view the full Bilstein range to compare shock series.
This kit suits BT50 owners running a canopy, tray or bullbar for work, and tourers adding a rooftop tent, water tanks or long-range fuel for remote travel. If your accessory load varies trip to trip rather than staying constant, our airbag suspension options can be added to the rear leaf springs for adjustable load support.

This Bilstein B60 kit is built for the Mazda BT50 UP and UR series, 2011-ON, covering both the 2.2L and 3.2L turbo-diesel variants. It uses vehicle-specific EFS leaf springs and Bilstein B60 shocks matched to this chassis, not a universal fit. If you're unsure which series your BT50 is, our team can confirm fitment from your VIN or build plate before you order.
The kit delivers a 2"-3" lift front and rear, using EFS raised leaf springs at the rear and matched-height coil springs up front. The exact lift within that range depends on the spring rate selected to suit your constant accessory load. Our team can help you pick the combination that lands closer to 2" or 3" based on what's fitted to your BT50.
Please note that all assembled struts are dispatched at a height based on our experience and the manufacturer’s specifications for the advertised lift. Coil springs and leaf springs are also manufactured according to the advertised height and constant-load rating. Actual vehicle height may vary depending on the vehicle and the weight of fitted accessories. Further adjustment may therefore be required after installation. The installer may use coil spacers or adjust the struts at their discretion to achieve the desired height. We are not responsible for vehicle-specific height variations or any additional adjustments required after installation.
You get 2 x Bilstein B60 60mm bore monotube shocks front, 2 x rear, EFS raised leaf springs, matched front coil springs, polyurethane bushes, U-bolts, shackles and all mounting hardware. Upper and lower control arms are not included and are sold separately. See the full kit contents list above for exact quantities.
Yes, the rear leaf spring pack is available in constant-load rate options that support towing and payload work such as a tow ball weight or heavy canopy. The 60mm bore Bilstein shocks are sized to control that extra mass without excessive body roll. Tell us your typical towing setup and we'll match the leaf spring rate accordingly.
Control arms aren't included in this kit, but many BT50 owners running the full 3" lift pair it with upgraded control arms to correct front-end geometry and CV joint angles. Whether you need them depends on your final ride height and current control arm condition. Our team can assess this during your fitment consultation.
Yes, a wheel alignment is mandatory after installing this kit. Raising the BT50's ride height changes camber, caster and toe, and running it unaligned accelerates tyre wear and affects handling. We recommend booking the alignment straight after fitment, once the suspension has settled onto its new ride height.
Yes, the rear leaf springs are available in different constant-load ratings to suit accessories like bullbars, canopies, trays and dual-battery setups. Selecting the correct rate keeps the rear sitting level rather than sagging under your specific load. Let our team know what's fitted or planned and we'll recommend a spring rate to match.
A 2"-3" lift typically opens up clearance for larger tyres on the BT50, though the exact size depends on wheel offset, width and whether flares are fitted. Most BT50 owners running this kit fit up to 33-inch tyres without major rubbing issues. Check your specific wheel and tyre combination with our team before ordering to avoid clearance surprises.
This kit is backed by Bilstein's manufacturer warranty on the B60 shock absorbers, alongside the EFS spring warranty terms. Full warranty documentation is provided at purchase so you know exactly what's covered. Our team handles warranty claims directly if any issue arises after fitment.
Yes, the Bilstein B60 monotube shocks are tuned to stay compliant unladen, so the BT50 doesn't ride harsh when it's not carrying a full load. Many owners run this kit as their daily driver and tow or load up on weekends without needing a second suspension setup. The leaf spring rate you choose should reflect your everyday load, not just occasional heavy trips.
